The anime MMO MapleStory 2 is getting the first part of a major expansion called Skybound in just a few days.
With Skybound, you’ll be expecting plenty of new content, including a journey to an airship above the clouds.
Up in the Air with a New Class
What does Skybound bring? Skybound is the first major expansion of the hit MMORPG MapleStory 2. The addon is so extensive that it will be released in multiple parts. The first one is coming soon.
- Victoria Island is threatened by the forces of darkness
- The Kingdom of Tria is creating a powerful airship for war: the Sky Fortress!
- You will travel to the Sky Fortress, where new missions await you
- You will also encounter five factions, including the Royal Guard, the Agents of Dark Wind, and the Wizards of the Lumiknights
- Each faction offers you unique items in their own shop
- Daily quests will lead you through Maple World
- The new class Soul Binder is introduced, whose spells are powered by Mantra Cores that you must collect
- PvP will be introduced with the Maple Arena, where 1v1 duels will take place
The MMORPG still delights players
When will the addon be released? The first part of Skybound will be available on December 6 for MapleStory 2.
What else is coming? The developers of MapleStory 2 announced a special event that will take place from December 6 to January 10. During this event, your task is to find an item called “Epic Toads Enchanting Stone Fragments” in the dungeons with a hard difficulty level.
Players receive 10 fragments per “Dungeon Clear” and can craft a magic stone with 20 fragments, which can then be used instead of a copy of an equipment piece required for enchanting Epic equipment.
How is the mood in MapleStory 2? The reviews on Steam are at an average of 86% and “Very Positive”. Players are largely enthusiastic about the MMORPG and are also looking forward to the release of the expansion.
Here and there, there’s a bit of criticism about botting and the fact that some balancing could still be worked on, but overall, MapleStory 2 continues to receive very positive feedback.
